You can tell this film was written by a straight male. Dave's wife is a shallow woman. She plays mind games, lies to herself and betrays her husband. She insults and demeans him for being a loving husband and father because she is attracted to the bad boy. If not for this awful, stereotypical portrayal of a married woman, I'd have enjoyed this film more. Exploring the dangerous dynamic with the Vance's would have made this a much more complex film.
